DR.. Borgeon, q leading French doctor, |
has a new treatment for consumption
He gives an enema of carbolic acid and |
sulphuretted hydrogen gases, the latter
gas carrying the former into every part OF
the throat and lungs.
This treatment, too, is directed at effects
the cause remains undisturbed.
What this cause is has been stated by per-
haps the highest pulmonary authority IN
the world, l. g., the Brompton Hospital Tor
Consumptives, in London, Eng.
| This malady every year carries of from
| one-seventh to one-fifth OF the entire popu-
| lation of England
DIR. Payne, NJ. D., M. X. c. p, London, Is
authority for this statement
! The same or greater proportion OF
| deaths obtains in America.
DR.. Payne also says that one-half the
total number of deaths from all other causes
have seeds of this disease in the system
| which only require some irrltant to Develop
Dr. Hermann Brehmer, an eminent Ger
man authority, says that consumption is
caused by deficient nutrition Of the lungs,
by poor blood.
| These authorities can not be disputed.
| The medical world recognizes them. The
uric acid is the irritant in the blood that
| causes LHe utNtlOpulCllb VI bno oOCuo which
| Dr. Brehmer says lie dormant in the blood.
Every particle of blood which passes
through the lungs and heart, also goes
through the kidneys, and If they are IN the
least derangei they can not rid the blood
of its killing poison. The thousand little
hair-like sewer tubes OF the kidneys very
easily get blocked up and diseased; ana
when they do, they corrupt instead OF pu-
rifying the blood. Kidney disease may ex-
list, and yet no pain occur in that organ,
because it is deficient in nerves OF Sensa-
ton.
Dip your finger in acid every day and it
soon testers and is destroyed Send acid
poisoned blood through the lungs every
second, and they soon give way.
The Brompton Hospital investigation
showed that So per cent. of the victims OF
consumption were afflicted with deranged
kidneys, which permitted the uric acid
poison to remain in the blood and irritate
the lungs This uric acid is always hight
ing every vital organ, and II there be any
inherent weakness in the lungs 1t lneVlta-
bly, causes pneumonia, cough and consump-
ton.
The real cause of pulmonary troubles be-
ing so authoritatively shown to be faulty
even though unsupported action or the KID
neys, explains why, in order to master the
dreaded consumption, one must rid the
blood of the uric acid irritant which in
|
For this purpose there is nothing equal to
that great specific, Warmers safe cure:
This remedy has now the favor of medical
men all over the world purely on its mer-
it's We have no doubt that if the kidneys
4 are kept in natural action, consumption
, and a great many other diseases, caused
by uric acid, will not only be cured but
will be prevented.
When the kidney is healthy, no albumen
: appears in the water, but albumen is found
in the water of more than half of those
:, who die of consumption!
1 This, then, is the condition OF things
} that always precedes consumption: First
: weakened kidneys; second, retained uric
! acid, poisoning the blood; third, the de
: velopment of disease in the lungs by the
irritant acids passing through them. Their
there is little cough in the morning
soon thick, yellow matter, is spit up, 1ol

i dreadful night sweats; and when the pa
n tent goes to his school physician for help

: stomach, weakened also by uric acid in the
+ blood, can not digest. Because there is NJ

a does not think they are affected, but tn
